History
Streptococcus equinus, which is always abundant in the feces of horses, was first isolated from the air in 1906 by Andrewes and Horder due to the presence of dried horse manure, common in most cities at the time.
In 1910, Winslow and Palmer verified the findings of Andrewes and Horder and reported further findings in both cow and human feces.
